are desirable. A close observer of the 

 cut-flower market believes that fewer 

 varieties and better culture will be 

 needed to produce dahlias at a profit. 

 The best dahlias for cut flowers today 

 are Jack Bose, Kreimhilde, Lyndhurst, 

 Flora and a good yellow. This is merely 

 a selection, a number of other varieties 

 are just as good. The point is to pro- 

 duce good flowers of good varieties, 



with good stems, in quantity sufficient 

 to warrant taking orders for them. 



Mr. Farenwald's Soses. 



Abilitv and enterprise have placed 

 Adolph Farenwald in the front rank of 

 our eastern rose powers. Rose growing 

 is a science on his place. IJis plans are 

 carefully laid at the beginning of each 

 season and they are as skillfully carried 



out, without deviation. This season Mr. 

 Farenwald aims to produce long- 

 stemmed Killarneys during midwinter. 

 This aim will, barring some unforeseen 

 accident, be successfully carried out. He 

 has the foundation for a large crop of 

 long-stemmed flowers that will be well 

 scattered over the social season. 



Two roses, Killarney and Bichmond, 

 are the varieties grown by Mr. Faren- 

 wald, in the proportion of about two to 

 one in favor of Killarney. A casual 

 glance over the houses shows a differ- 

 ence in method employed in handling 

 the two roses, for while Killarney is 

 carefully staked and tied, Bichmond 

 runs wild. A further difference ap- 

 pears in the style of growth; most of 

 the heavy shoots in Killarney are top 

 growth, while in Bichmond ground 

 breaks are depended upon. The ques- 

 tion of grafting is unsettled, although 

 the balance now swings in favor of the 

 graft, for the last two houses devoted 

 to Killarney contain grafted plants. 



Mr. Farenwald 's fall method of rose 

 growing aims to secure the greatest 

 amount of vigor — vigor that will be 

 utilized during the forcing months of 

 winter. He airs freely during late 

 August and September until firing be- 

 gins, which this season was in early 

 October. This system courts mildew
